Princeton Review names RIT one of nation’s best colleges

RIT is again being recognized as one of the nation’s best institutions for undergraduate education, according to The Princeton Review. The education services company features RIT in the just-published 2011 edition of its annual book The Best 373 Colleges. In its profile on RIT, The Princeton Review quotes extensively from students at the university who were surveyed for the book. The publication credits RIT for “uniting creativity, innovation and applied knowledge.” According to the summary of RIT student comments, “Across the board, there is an ‘emphasis on hands-on learning,’ and most majors require students to complete a cooperative work experience.” RIT has one of the oldest and largest cooperative education programs in the nation.

RIT also appears in the 2011 edition of
The Fiske Guide to Colleges, which features more than 300 of the country’s best and most interesting colleges and universities.
